Ok ... after sending an email to the organisation of #CSSday , mentioning Peter-Paul Koch (npub1ret…l55h) and CSS Day (npub1sgc…ng40) and not getting a reply. I've decided not to go to to the event.
Really a shame, because I saw Rebane (npub1jd6…08ye) @ #39c3 and it was a great fun! <3
Now, I truly wonder if the other participants will feel ok sharing the stage with the COO of this organisation (see the links in the quoted toot, and more here: https://programming.dev/post/26426207/15416301)

I hope you get well soon.
I'm seriously considering not attending to #cssday after I learn the COO of Ladybird Browser Initiative will give a talk at the conference?
Maybe you are not aware about their very non-inclusive policy and —to be soft— their toxic leadership?
